To get the right ownership (for security purposes) you would need to extract offline and ftp it up. I wish we had a way to click a button and have some command line script executed which did the zipping, emailed the backup (or stored it online somewhere and emailed a link), and then forwarded the browser to a new page back in the site. It could theoretically be written in about any language. I just don't know much about command line scripts, or how to do a backup in php. For all I know there's a simple php command... Hmmm, seems there are a couple options, but none enabled on php installations by default. Probably would do better to do some other language than php.
